Last night I was watching Master Chef. You know that show with Gordon Ramsey? It puts 'home-chef' head to head in different cooking challenges. Anyways, one of the challenges last night was to make the best cheese souffle. As I was watching, I couldn't help but think: "hey, I'm a home-chef." (Well an aspiring one at the very least.) And: "hey, why don't I try making souffle!" I must admit the souffles on TV looked so darn tasty, so that was part of the motivation.
After the episode was over, I went on YouTube to look up how exactly to make a cheese souffle. I must admit, I had NO idea how to make one, but I really wanted to learn how to. Then I watched enough videos to feel confident enough to try making a souffle. However it was already pretty late, so I just deiced to make them in the morning.
This morning I went back online to look up recipes. I went on many different websites, until I found a recipe that I liked. This is the one that I used: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Classic-Cheese-Souffle-242119
I only made two small changes, they were:
-I added in 1 TBS of fresh chives.
-Instead of Gruyere cheese, I used cheddar
Overall, I think that my souffles turned really well. Especially since it was my first time ever making souffle! They rose nicely, and they didn't fall in the process of cooking. Also to top everything off, they were super tasty, light, and fluffy!
Here are some pictures of the process!
